An offshoot from our three-month MOVING FASHION project at the end of 2005, EDITING FASHION shifted the focus of SHOWstudio's ongoing exploration of fashion film from direction to the editing process and from established, guest artists to the SHOWstudio viewer base. For this, we offered a package of source material –including exclusive film footage shot by Nick Knight and a selection of possible soundtracks by guest artists- that could be downloaded and edited by SHOWstudio Viewers. Viewers were asked to make an edit from the material provided which lasted up to two minutes. By keeping the source material the same in all cases, the emphasis was kept on the individual editor’s approach and authorship. The finished films could then be uploaded onto SHOWstudio from mid-January 2006 and screened in the Viewers’ Cut gallery.

A second phase of this project saw a number of high-profile, internationally-based, professional editors from a range of different genres tackle the same footage to create a series of five-minute shorts in early 2006.

The printed page has determined the way fashion looks since women's magazines were first introduced. For over three centuries garments have appeared as if frozen still. Nick Knight's key motivation for founding SHOWstudio was to investigate the representation of clothing through sound and motion; perhaps the last great challenge in fashion image making.'Moving Fashion' aimed to exploit this exciting new opportunity through an in-depth study of fashion film.

AMAZE ME was inspired by the brief issued by art director Alexi Brodovitch to photographer Richard Avedon — simply to “amaze him”.

The challenge asked you, the public, to respond to a brief set by a panel of six leading creative industry figures. Viewers had the chance to come along to one of our micro-studio booths and make a 30 second video pitch.

The best six entries won a PSP™(Playstation®Portable), plus an exclusive opportunity to work with the panellist they attempted to amaze.

SHOWstudio recruited viewers' help in prepping a major project with i-D magazine, for the October 2005 issue. We asked you for your favourite item of clothing, which was to be customised and styled by a leading stylist, modelled by a stellar cast of fashion luminaries and curiosities, photographed by Nick Knight for i-D magazine and then auctioned for charity on eBay to raise money for Oxfam!

Liberty Ross featured in a live, interactive photo shoot that was broadcast on SHOWstudio on June 28, 29 & 30 2005. Inspired by the live, pornographic video chats widely available on the web, the model was the focus of a free ‘feature show’ for which there was also a live video feed. Effectively, it acted as SHOWstudio’s interactive ‘collections story’ for the Autumn/Winter ’05-6 season.

NEW WORLD

Jason Evans

To tide us over the tense, festive period and into the unchartered New Year, photographer Jason Evans delivered some much-needed daily optimism. Sending an image each day from his month-long trip down under and more, Evans took the SHOWstudio picture phone to north and south New Zealand, Los Angeles, San Francisco, southern California and Hong Kong. Those who lamented the completion of Evans' acclaimed 'Beauty Where You Find It' project and enjoyed the sheer joy of his 'Daily Nice' website will appreciate the idiosyncratic eye, capacity for fun and unexpected tastes that have become the Evans hallmark.

SHELF APPEAL

Penny Martin

An artificial sweetener dispenser designed by Karl Lagerfeld, a hairbrush
whose bristles had been replaced by locks of human hair, coloured contact
lenses that sported the letters 'CD' across the iris: each of these fashion
curios occupied the weird territory between fashion garment and accessory,
making them qualify for SHELF APPEAL. For the bi-monthly 'Editor's Choice'
slot that ran from December 2003-4, Penny Martin selected her then current object of desire, got it into the SHOWstudio live space and gave it a good old written examination.

PORTFOLIO

Paul Hetherington, Penny Martin, Christabel Stewart

To reveal the process of a staple industry practise, SHOWstudio initiated 'PORTFOLIO', an opportunity to invite practitioners - both established and new - into the SHOWstudio space to disclose their books live on camera. Part of an ongoing, fortnightly project, highlights of these portfolios were captured to create an accumulating resource, both for future SHOWstudio projects and as an inventory of new talent.

Drawing on classic models of feminine beauty from mannerist Madonnas to Marilyn, this simple beauty shot brought to life suggests a modern resolution to possibly the most problematic challenge in fashion image-making.
